Log message:
	Update lvm_vg_extend to do an implicit pvcreate on the device.
	
	Although the tools do not currently do this, we update lvm_vg_extend
	to do an implicit pvcreate on an uninitialized device.  The tools will
	soon be refactored to do this as well, but more work is needed in the
	tools.  For now we update lvm_vg_extend since this is the behavior
	required by liblvm.
	With this change, the simple liblvm unit test, test/api/vgtest.c
	should pass whether or not the device is initialized.
